Entry DescriptionHelsinki Outlet's “thing” is its green areas and lighting.
The lighting has been designed by Lighting Design Collective.
Jari Vuorinen says that Helsinki Outlet's basic lighting is designed to guide the customer path and support the outlet’s logo theme. “The client wanted a tool for indirect communication and marketing. Helsinki Outlet did not want video screens or other traditional AV communications, but we were asked if we would come up with something that would drive the same thing in a new way”.
The end result is a light art work called Moment Magnet.
During the day, the copper tubes on the gray surface of the Helsinki Outlet live according to the weather, reflecting sunlight.
Even in the evening, the work seeks its impetus from its surroundings, and even from current events, but instead of sunlight, it then makes spectacular use of visual means.
It is a kind of Internet Of Things medium in a commercial context: “A work retrieves and utilizes different data. For example, the direction and speed of the wind can affect what is shown in the work. You can also manage it yourself, and the outlet mall can react quickly to a hockey win, for example, through Moment Magnet".
